Calico can segment traffic based on Kubernetes labels, making it easy to apply network policies to specific groups of containers.
Calico provides network visibility and debugging tools to help you quickly identify and resolve network issues in AKS.
Calico supports IP-in-IP, VXLAN, and other overlay networks, giving you flexibility in configuring your AKS network.
Calico integrates with cloud-native security solutions such as Azure Security Center, making it easier to secure your AKS environment.
Calico can be deployed in hybrid and multi-cloud environments, providing a consistent network security policy across your entire infrastructure.
Calico is designed to be highly scalable, handling the demands of large and complex AKS deployments.
Calico has a strong community of users and developers and is widely used in production environments, ensuring reliability and performance.
Calico uses IP-in-IP encapsulation and VXLAN to route network traffic between pods in AKS.
Calico implements network policies in AKS using Kubernetes Network Policy resources, which specify which pods are allowed to communicate with each other.
Calico provides network visibility and debugging tools, such as calicoctl, to monitor network traffic and debug network issues in AKS.
Calico supports network policy enforcement at the pod and namespace level, providing granular control over network traffic.
Calico provides a simplified and consistent network security policy across hybrid and multi-cloud environments, reducing complexity and ensuring security.
